Is there also a softmac version of the BCM4329 available? The wl driver
shipped with the vendor firmware of my BCM4716 device detects one of the
wifi chips as BCM4329. I think it is the one in the BCM4716 and that is
already supported by b43. Or is this a wrong information?

Here is the output of the kernel log:
eth0: Broadcom BCM47XX 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Controller 5.10.144.3
eth1: Broadcom BCM4329 802.11 Wireless Controller 5.10.144.5
PCI: Enabling device 01:01.0 (0000 -> 0002)
eth2: Broadcom BCMa8d8 802.11 Wireless Controller 5.10.144.5
